"In light of all this pain, what can a fantasy novel offer?  It can ask us to consider alternatives and possibilities.  What if we lived in a world where people didn't drown trying to escape war and persecution, where somehow love, like magical water, surrounded us whenever we most needed and held us all up?...The truth is, we do live in a world where these things are possible.  We simply have to choose to make them happen.  And sometimes, I think-I hope-a book can help us see that, and have courage, and take action." ]]> 2020-09-03 23:20:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lajones25_1/wgwi4en0kiaoa5t7/wish/719672364 lajones25_1 https://padlet.com/lajones25_1/wgwi4en0kiaoa5t7/wish/729716492 "Mad feels like it's going somewhere at least.  Sad just sits on your chest making it hard to move or breathe."
